In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) of 1998, the text of which can be found on the U.S. Copyright Office website at http://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf, we will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement committed using the Small Batch Chocolate Cookies service and/or website (the "Site") if such claims are reported to our Designated Copyright Agent identified below.

If you are a copyright owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of one, or authorized to act under any exclusive right under copyright, please report alleged copyright infringements taking place on or through the Site by completing the following DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement and delivering it to our Designated Copyright Agent.

Filing a DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement

Upon receipt of a valid DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement, we will take whatever action, in our sole discretion, we deem appropriate, including removal of the challenged content from the Site.

  1. Identification of the copyrighted work: Identify the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed. This includes a description of the work and, where possible, a copy or the location (e.g., URL) of an authorized version of the work.
  2. Identification of the infringing material: Identify the material that you claim is infringing, and its location on the Small Batch Chocolate Cookies Site. Provide precise URLs of the allegedly infringing material.
  3. Contact Information: Your name, address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted.
  4. Good Faith Belief Statement: A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

  6. Signature: A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.

Filing a DMCA Counter-Notification

If you believe that your content that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or pursuant to the law, to post and use the material in your content, you may send a counter-notification containing the following information to our Copyright Agent:

  • Identification of the removed material: Identify the specific URL(s) of the content that was removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the content appeared before it was removed or disabled.
  • Good Faith Belief Statement: A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the content.
  • Contact Information: Your name, address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address.
  • Consent to Jurisdiction: A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which Small Batch Chocolate Cookies may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification of the alleged infringement.
  • Signature: Your physical or electronic signature.

Upon receipt of a counter-notification, Small Batch Chocolate Cookies may send a copy of the counter-notification to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the content provider, member or user, the removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notification, at our sole discretion.
